"THE END OF THE WORLD"

DR.. Manley, in the article which we
print this week, puts his critical knife
into the Interpretation given by one Of
the writers in Smiths Dictionary of
the Bible" in regard to the theory of a
double meaning as relating to our
Lords words in Matt. XIV. 3. He
properly brands that theory as inadmis-
sible in any proper exegesis of the pas
sage. The following may help the
reader interested in discovering the
true meaning of our Lord:
"And Jesus said unto them, See ye
not all these things9 Verify 1 say unto
you, there shall not be left here che
stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down. And as he sat upon the
Mount of Olives the disciples came to
him privately saying, Tell US when shall
these things be? and what shall be the
sign of Thy coming, and of the end of
the world?"
DR.. Whitby says this question sig
mites, "When wilt thou come to de-
stroy the temple, and to put an end to
the Jewish church,"
Lightfoot says: ''By the phrase END
of the world is meant end of the Jew
ish age"
Bishop Newton observes: 1.-THE end
of the world, or conclusion of the age,
is the same eriod with the destruction
Of Jerusalem"
DR.. Young, Of Edinburgh, in his
valuable translation, gives US to under
stand that this phrase lend of the
world" should read lend of the age"
These are few of many declarations
to the same effect penned by the most
eminent divines, and they are in har-
mOny with our Lords own answer to
the earnest enquiries of his disciples.
For, although he does not give them
the day nor the hour, yet he informs
them saying, $50 likewise ye, when We
shall see all these things, know that it
is near even at the door. Verify say
unto you this generation shall not pass
till all these things be fulfilled. Matt.
XIV. 33, "a. The answer of our Lord,
being the only answer that could have
been given, then the theory of a
double sense" is untenable. DIR.
Manley's article will instruct those
who have been brought up to believe
that two meanings are included in our
Lords words.

THE STATE CONVENTION.
FIRST Daytime 2.

the Ohio Universalist Convention was
called to order, at North Lewisburg, at
$3.50 A. NJ, on Thursday, June 2, Will
liam ]. Littell, of Cincinnati, President,
in the chair. Prayer by Rev. Elihu
Moore. The roll was called by the
Secretary, Rev. j. w. Henley, and a
quorum declared present.
Organization.
After remarks by the President, ex-
planatory of the composition of the Con-
vention. the following officers were
elected by ballot:
President, A. B. TINKER, Akron.
Vice-president, w. j. LITTELL, Gin
cinnati.
A vote of cordial and hearty thanks
was adopted to the retiring President
for his two years of faithful service.
His election as Vice-president was a
compliment in another form-a desire
to have his valuable services retained
on the Executive Committee.
Mr.. Tinker, ON assuming the chair,
spoke briefly and impressively in re-
gard to the spirit that should properly
characterize the proceedings of reli-
gious body. He trusted that the Con-
vention would remember that Christ
ian spirit was the only proper spirit to
obtain in the business proceedings of
the body.
Rev. DR.. Demarest
was present, AS the Secretary of the Gen
eral Convention, and as representing
the Board of Trustees. The Conven-
ton, by vote, recognized his presence
and accorded the privileges of the floor.

Rev. w. S. Bacon then moved the
adoption of the recommendation of
that part of the Executive Commit
tee concerning selection of grounds
near North Lewisburg. After discus
sion, the motion was lost by a small
majority.
The remainder of the Report of Ex-
ecutive Committee was adopted.
The report of Committee on Memo
rails, was presented by Rev. S. p. Carl
ton, and was adopted as follows.
Rev. H. p. Sage, our departed broth
er, has been gathered as sheaf fully
ripe; at the time of his demise he was
the most aged minister of our denomi-
nation in Ohio, eighty-six years. We
first met some forty-one years ago; he
was then in his prime. A man of more
than ordinary intellectual ability, very
active mind, full of zeal, and very
much devoted to our UNCONVENTIONAL
york. He continued to labor as oppor-
tunity afforded, while health and
strength permitted. For several years
past, extreme age and infirmity pre-
vented his active services, but his in
terest in, and love for the cause and
brethren, remained undated and his
faith and hope undiminished. May
his mantle rest upon the brethren that
survive and the blessed influence of his
life abide with us forever.
During the past year Richard Wool
ley, ST., of Cincinnati, has been called
from the society of earth. Though a
layman, he labored with heart and hand
to build up Universalism in our midst.

THE editor regrets that absence from
the city last week, prevented his attend
ance at the International Sundays
Convention, to which he received cor
dial invitation from the local commit
tee. Among the resolutions adopted
were those declaring in favor of scien-
tific instruction in schools relative to
the evil effects of alcoholic drink, and
also for temperance, piety and personal
purity; also that every Sunday school
should be temperance training school.
The Convention was very largely at
tended, and many of the eminent Sun
day-school workers in the United States
and Canada were present.

Charles summers Closing Years.
!. Especial Correspondence

Mr.. Sumner passed the closing years Of his
laborious career in carefully editing a col
lection OF his speeches, haunted by the sad
presentiment that his days were numbered.
Let me but finish this work, = he would say
to his friends, SAM death will be weicome;'
and, as he spoke, his sonorous voice would
falter and his eyes would fill with tears. The
last morning that he visited the senate cham.
Der he replied to an inquiry as to his health,
II am tired, tired!n That night, on his dying
bed. he repeatedly murmured, "Ohi SO tired
OH SO wearyip 1t was the old story of I'M
crowned hopes md unpaid public service,
which is never trite because it is sadly true.
YEARLY, and unsoothed by woman's tender
love, Summers heroic soul departed from
earth and its troubles. Lincoln, Seward,
Chase, Fessenden, Stevens, Hale and other
stalwart departed captains of freedoms hosts
were speedily followed hence by the COM
mander of their vanguard, Charles Summer.

Turkish Soldiers in constantinop,e.

Near by W probably seethe Turkish officer,
whom we notice not only on account of his
rank, but because of his splendid display in
dress. The horse, too, with all its trappings,
is very gay. The common soldier does not
appear so well. To be sure, his uniform Is
warm and comfortable, but the blue suit is
usually faded and the red trimmings dingy,
while his heavy boots and awkward gun give
him q clumsy appearance. Most of their
faces seem to lack any characteristic express
sion, for theif life is compulsory and cannot
be a very happy one. None but Turkish SUBJ
jects, of course, are: seen in this dress, but
there are many Of them. At the ends of the
bridge are guard houses, where soldiers al
ways stand, like dark and gloomy statues,
except when they salute a passingscflcer. The
negro Is often seen in uniform also. Nowhere
else IN the world does the colored gentleman

charitable.

A dashing Maltese gentleman, who has so
far lowered himself as to answer to the name
of Dick, assumes the position Of father of the
home, as old Dorritt was the father of the
Marshalsea. When he has finished his w
meal he often tastes the portion served out to
his companions. His mistress visits him reg
ularly once a week. At feeding time, which
occurs twice q day, he perches upon the
shoulders Of his good landlady, Mrs. West,
and whispers soft nothings in her ear and is
rewarded with tidbits from her own hand.
The boarders and the almshouse inmates
never mix-they are separated by wire graf
ings and commiserate with each other only
occasionally. Very little sympathy exists
between them.
This advertisement appeared in one Of the
papers here the other day:

will be given to any one who IhIl return the same

Crouched up in a dark corner of the aims
portion of the house, weeping perhaps, it was
too dark to distinguish definitely. was
aDaisy, " tho identical lost one. But no pink
ribbon adorned her sleek neck now, no glossy
polish spread over her formerly shiny coat.
Probably u romantic history was attached to
her. She had always been fond Of sporting
companions, and in an i'll chosen moment she
jumped from the back fence n wandered
away upon the crowded streets. Losing her
road for two days she wandered about the
city picking up scraps here and there, until
one morning she was run over by a passing
wagon and was carried to the cats house
with a broken leg A few days after the
above notice had appeared, being unclaimed
and in great pain, she was ordered to be
killed. Driven out of her dark corner, where
she had refused all food, into a room where is
located a charcoal stove, arranged for such
occasions, she was shut In and fell asleep, suf-
located by the carbomic oxide gas.
Stray dogs and hayward puppies are
treated in the same manner unless claimed or
purchased by some one prepared to giye.them
|a good home. The ladies' committee, who
control this branch Of the society, visit the
home at regular intervals. The method of
killing is humane, as the animals suffer no
pain at all, but are simply ~asphyxiated with
the poisonous gas.
Other animals have found a temporary
shelter at this home, from a melting canary
TO an injured lamb; but these do not associate
with the regular boarders of the establish
ment. A little child who a been driven
from home by cruelty was brought there one
night, and during her short stay became quite
a favorite with "Dick" and his surrounding
companions. l., II. NJ.

her head to the soies of her feet was a mass Of decay,
masses OF flesh rotting of and leaving great cavities.
Her fingers festered and three or four nails droppsd
of at one time. Her limbs contracted by the fearful
liberation, and for several years she did not leave
her bed. Her weight was reduced from 1876 to GO lbs.
Perhaps some faint idea Of her condition can be
CLEANED from the fact that three pounds Of Cosmo-
line OF ointment were used per week in dressing her
sores. Finally the physicians acknowledged their
